Cheap flights to Vienna

Oh, Vienna

Vienna is a dream city break. Part functioning city, but part cultural playground, its clean streets, wide sweeping avenues and huge palaces – relics of a once impressive empire – give it the air of a fantasy land.

So much of culture reaches its highest potential in Vienna – it is here that Strauss perfected his waltzes and here that the Spanish riding school and the famous Vienna Boys’ Choir reside. There are still winter balls for debutantes and the waiters in cafés wear black bowties and long aprons. Even chocolate is taken to its highest art form – in the glossy finish of a traditional sachertorte. But dig a little deeper. Behind the façades there are bars with no name where you can order ten types of spritzer, streets filled with designer shops and design shops selling furniture from Biedermeier to Bauhaus. The empire may be gone, but the glamour never fades. Magical holidays in Vienna await.
